|
|
Weird. I downloaded "Moon". A new sci-fi movie set on the moon.
Kevin Spacey is the computer voice. Anyway, the modules in the
moon-base are labelled: Sarang 1, Sarang 2 etc. It is also written
in Hangul. I think this is strange because the movie has nothing
whatsoever to do with Korea. Check time frame 37:13.
Perhaps an optimistic view of Korea's construction industry.
Go to mininova, click browse, click sci-fi, click seeds to get the latest.
It took about 5 minutes to download. 1.5MB/sec.! |

"Sam Bell (Sam Rockwell) is an employee contracted by the Korean-based company Lunar Industries to extract helium-3 from lunar soil for much-needed power back on Earth. He is stationed for three years at the 'Sarang' ('Sarang' means 'love' in Korean) lunar base with only a robot named GERTY (voiced by Kevin Spacey) for company;" |

A white guy leaves his family and loved ones behind to travel thousands of miles to work for a Korean company only to be cheated, lied to and trapped.
That's not science fiction. |

Makes you wonder if there isn't something more sinister behind a Midnight Run... |

I prefer the Chinese that was displayed in Serenity
And the language (possibly Hangul?) in Star Wars  |
